The board is supposed to provide both a forum for "fun" speculation and sharing useful information, not trashing somebody with unsubstantiated rumor. There's an amount of professionalism that goes with this that goes a long way on here. There are a lot of people that read this (including players) that have never had the chance to meet some of the people that get openly bashed for no reason, and there are even fewer that are privy to the real reasons for happenings. Imagine being the one that's getting trashed on here by somebody that truly knows nothing about what's going on and then dealing with the backlash for the harmful speculation stated as truth.
For those of you contributing to the ruthless slander of good people and then crying about censorship, create your own blog and leave the rest of us alone that still believe in innocent until proven otherwise.
In all seriousness, thank you Odin and Doppleganger for locking down the threads that are getting way off base and turn to character assassination. Some of us actually do read for information, and not somebody's personal vendetta or attention getting trolls.

ive noticed a definite lack of off base/slanderous threads dragging on and on BECAUSE the moderators have been so quick to lock down threads.
I say bravo. This site has never been more INFORMATIVE and USEFUL in my experience. Set the precedent that blindly bashing coaches/players/programs on here for no reason won't be tolerated and it will go away.

I'm not taking sides on what went on at CU and I certainly am not attempting to perpetuate or defend what has been said. However, I was disappointed to see the initial knee-jerk reaction was to openly blame and trash the CU players. There are always two sides to a story.
